By: nilomis : April 13th, 2017-09:09
Team, Let's see what you have on your wrist for this weekend. I plan to have a Rattrapante weekend: De Ville Co Axial Rattrapante - Love it. Or my trusty Speedmaster Co Axial Rattrapante. To "walk on the wild side", nothing better than a "rusty" Longines ...

Sterling silver case. Blue patinated dial. Everything else on the dial and pointers are platinum.

Girard Perregaux 7427V

 
By: tonyjbanks : June 12th, 2017-13:59
Hi, I wonder if somebody can help me identify my Girard Perregaux watch? It looks very similar to the Daimer 7427 in you picture, even the bracelet is similar. The face doesn't have the cross hatching of the Daimer and it has roman numerals. On the back o... 

Wonderful timepieces to open this week end W/S dear Nilo!!...

 
By: Subexplorer : April 13th, 2017-12:00
... I specially love the De Ville Rattrapante chrono with those blue hands and markers popping out against the dial! Well... the other two would make me a happy man too! Lol! Hagwe and a nice Easter Season to you and all our dear friends here! Abel.

This De Ville was a long hunt ...

 
By: nilomis : April 13th, 2017-18:30
With the help of the fantastic local Boutique team, that checked under every rock on the planet Omega, it was impossible to locate a brand new one. Cheers, Nilo

Molly dug out another watch...

 
By: MTF : April 13th, 2017-12:02
Molly the Mole helped again to find a watch for me... Omega Constellation Automatic Chronometer in white gold case and bracelet Rare appearance by a rare watch; I've only ever seen one on a human wrist.....mine! Molly is a good digger. Regards, MTF ...

Indeed, you are right.. The play of light in the sunray brushed center vs the other blue hues of the dial really is something to enjoy

 
By: hs111 : April 15th, 2017-05:48

Thanks Nico! I was lucky...

 
By: NT931 : April 14th, 2017-01:52
to pick this up from a fellow Italian collector and a true gentleman, via social media. IG has helped collectors in some ways (and perhaps also driven prices up in other ways)

Thanks D & CC!

 
By: NT931 : April 15th, 2017-05:14
The number & quality of vintage watches from Italy never fails to amaze me. Which often makes me wonder - if these are the ones being sold, what other lovelier specimens are they keeping in their safes? It boggles the mind!

Yes Latitude.

 
By: fernando : April 14th, 2017-05:04
Do you know the origin of this name and why they used it? Thank you.

Sorry Fernando I have no idea why JLC picked this name.

 
By: NT931 : April 14th, 2017-07:33
I always thought the name to be a slightly unusual one, and I'm not sure that it was meant to connote. Regardless, it's a very elegant Reverso!

Dear Nilo and friends, Happy easter

Your pictures, background included, makes to it a great homage. Cheers, Nilo

I am sure it will Arie

 
By: Geo : April 14th, 2017-00:24
that's why I only wear it together with a watch for the picture, besides that, it is not comfortable either.

Being one that changes watches ...

 
By: nilomis : April 14th, 2017-03:24
More than one time / day, I consider this as some sort of self inflicted torture. But I continue to envy your MB. Cheers, Nilo

This now becomes the helth issue :)))

 
By: Ares501 - Mr Green : April 14th, 2017-23:50
It's not healthy any more Quick look up...listen to CEO...go and strap that Sonata on wrist quickly or Arie if you are reading this and I know you do...give man a prize...he'll not give up... he's Vlad....enough is enough!! Cheers D

It comes originally with it....

 
By: JFT : April 14th, 2017-23:30
And yes, it's awesome on distressed leather strap! But this bracelet already complements its look as well..

Your "Ed White" is just glorious ...

 
By: nilomis : April 14th, 2017-05:24
I'm chasing a vintage Speedmaster but so far ... nothing that fits my taste. Cheers, Nilo

I never imagine that you could be an AP person. Cool pair. Believe it or not, I never had an AP in my hands. It's about time to correct this fault. Cheers, Nilo

Oh sure, but ...

 
By: nilomis : April 15th, 2017-14:51
In my feeble mind, AP is Royal Oak in their plethora of versions. Just like the hard core Panerists only pay attention to Luminor (I prefer Radiomir). Cheers, Nilo
